Study on Building Parent Committees in Educational Discipline in Primary and Secondary Schools

Abstract

The Parent Committee is a key organizational vehicle for home-school collaboration and plays a vital role in implementing educational discipline policies and carrying out disciplinary practices in primary and secondary schools. Strengthening the development of Parent Committees helps guide parents to participate effectively in educational discipline, promotes the standardized implementation of school disciplinary procedures, and facilitates the realization of the policy goals of educational discipline in primary and secondary schools. At present, Parent Committees in primary and secondary schools still face such problems as incomplete organizational structures, unscientific member selection, inadequate institutional safeguards, and uneven development across schools. It is therefore imperative to advance the development of Parent Committees in a systematic manner by clarifying their organizational attributes as well as rights and responsibilities, optimizing member election and composition, establishing sound operational mechanisms, and improving the support system.
